From Douluo Dalu to Queen

Chapter 144: Explosion of troops!

Leng Xiyao had no plans to stay in the Zerg territory for long, so she led everyone directly to the manor that had been prepared for Xue Qinghe, intending to rest here.

"Your Highness the Madam? Why are you here?" Looking at Xue Qinghe in front of him, Dugu Bo was a little confused.

Before going out this time, Dugu Bo was invited to sit in on a speech by the prince. Although he was not so interested in political matters, he had to praise the prince's wisdom. Compared with other emperors of several generations he had experienced, the current prince was indeed a model of a monarch. Emperor Xue Ye now also intends to let Xue Qinghe inherit the throne in advance so that Xue Qinghe can realize his ambitions and lead the Tiandou Empire to prosperity.

But why would the prince appear here?
"Senior Dugu, this is a long story..." Xue Qinghe did not expect Leng Xiyao to bring Poison Douluo, who is close to the royal family, with him this time, and could not help but smile bitterly.

This is not necessarily a good thing. Now the Spirit Hall probably knows that he is still alive, but they definitely don't know where he is hiding. If Dugu Bo inadvertently reveals some relevant information, it may be difficult for the Zerg to resist the Spirit Hall's offensive given its current condition.

"You guys chat first, I'm going to go take a look." Leng Xiyao was not interested in listening to the two people pouring out their hearts to each other. She was more interested in her own farming business.

With Dahuang, Tianmeng and Liu Qinghan, the four of them climbed up to the tallest building inside the manor. This was a watchtower that was specially built. From here, the entire Zerg territory can be seen at a glance.

Not far away, countless worker bees are moving densely, never getting tired of collecting various materials, most of which are the corpses of various soul beasts and the resources produced by the Light Eaters. These resources will be continuously transported to the underground nests, where a large group of queen insects will make good use of these resources to hatch more insect swarms.

After four or five months of development, the swarm now numbers nearly four hundred thousand.

This number is not small, as at least 250,000 of them are units hatched by the Queen herself. These units have only first-level combat power, and most of them are worker bees used to develop underground caves. Such low-level units can hatch tens of thousands in a day.

The ones that can really be called into battle are the elite troops of level three and above. Half of them are stockpiled poison explosions, which are basically prepared in advance for the revenge plan and cannot be called onto the battlefield at all.

Apart from that, there is only a 20,000-strong fifth-level Zergling army formed by Da Huang himself, which is the real elite of the Zerg.

Overall, the Zerg doesn't seem to have any major problems now, but Leng Xiyao is very dissatisfied with this.

If a flying expert passed by here and was displeased with the insect swarm, he could kill most of the light-eaters with just one move. Wouldn't she cry to death then?

Even some flying soul beasts, the Zerg is currently helpless.

In short, the Zerg's defense, especially its anti-aircraft defense, is still too weak, or it can be said that it has almost no anti-aircraft defense.

Thinking of this, Leng Xiyao opened the system and looked at the several genomes that she had not yet unlocked.

When it comes to anti-air defense, Leng Xiyao only has one unit with relatively strong combat power, and that is the Hydralisk.

But the Hydralisk's shortcomings are so obvious that even after so many years of playing StarCraft, she rarely uses Hydralisk in battles.

That's too fragile.

High attack and low defense are the characteristics of the Hydralisk, but as things stand now, the Hydralisk is obviously one of the indispensable components of the Zerg.

"So, Xiaobao, help me upgrade the genetic sequence of the Zerglings to level nine, and produce twenty of them directly!"

Compared with some minor flaws, Leng Xiyao knows better that the biggest problem of the Zerg nowadays is the lack of high-end combat capability. Even if the Zerg has anti-aircraft means, as long as the enemy is stronger, she will still be unable to do anything to the opponent!

And now, even a ninth-level jumping worm has the power of a hundred-thousand-year soul beast, which is enough to destroy most flying soul beasts.

This rich man spoke with confidence. After this operation, nearly 90 million insect nest points were destroyed.

The number of insect nests provided by the Ten Thousand Years Cold Marrow Lake is only over 20 million, but the Ten Thousand Years Cold Marrow in the cave is the bulk of it, adding up to nearly 70 million!
It seems outrageous, but it is actually okay. After all, Tianmeng can rely on these resources to practice for a million years, so it is not an exaggeration to be able to exchange for so many insect nest points.

It cost about 30 million to upgrade the Zerglings to the ninth level, and each ninth-level Zergling cost three million. The hatching time is not long, only about three days.

In addition, Leng Xiyao still has several million left. She used all of these insect nests to hatch explosive worms. Together with the previously reserved ones, the ones hatched by Dahuang himself, and the ones produced in advance by the Queen, there are about 100,000 of them. With the help of Dahuang's Guards Zergling Division of 10,000, this force is sure to stir up some trouble even in Wuhun City.

The combat effectiveness of a ninth-order Zergling is neither high nor low, and almost every one of them is equivalent to a soul beast of more than 100,000 years old. The reason why its combat effectiveness is limited is probably because the Zergling is just a basic land combat unit. If it is a high-level unit like a cockroach or a hydra, then the strength of a ninth-order unit may be at the level of a soul beast of 300,000 to 400,000 years old, or even higher.

Leng Xiyao wanted to get advanced units like cockroaches or hydralisks, but there was no way. Although her financial resources seemed to be abundant, she could only upgrade the level of Zerglings and produce some.

We would be lucky if one quarter of these twenty level nine jumping worms could come back alive after being brought to Wuhun City.

After hearing Leng Xiyao's instructions, Xiao Bao's voice rang out: "Ding! The Zergling genome has been upgraded! Hatching in progress! Countdown to two days, twenty-three hours and fifty-nine minutes."

"It has been detected that the host possesses a ninth-level biological technology. The mutation system is now open. You can consume a corresponding number of hive points to evolve a special ability for the unit. This ability will simultaneously affect all units of this type that you own."

"At the same time, if the host has a master of biology, he can also conduct genome research to enhance the actual combat effectiveness of the unit until it breaks through the tenth level."

Hearing this, Leng Xiyao couldn't help but open it and take a look at the evolution directions of the Zerglings that she could buy, and she was dazzled for a moment.

Among them, you can purchase special abilities such as immunity to explosions, immunity to fire, immunity to control, and growing wings, but the prices are also very touching, basically no price is less than 20 million insect nest points.

However, since it is an evolution that applies to all Zergling units, the price is not unreasonable and it can be considered good value for money!
